Eisenstein said "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones". do you think that we could be facing WW3 with Iran and Israel? just wondering what other people thought

I personally don't believe it. but a lot of people at my school do. Maybe cause we are next to an AF base

i think the concept of "world wars" is predicated upon opposing alliances.

that is to say, if Iran has a global set of allies, and Israel has a global set of allies, then that could conceivably trigger a world war.

Do you think that's the case? What major, developed nations are willing to go to war with the United States and its allies, in order to support Iran?

Russia, China, Turkey

Remember Iran is 2nd or 3rd in known reserves, depending on who is reporting.

Yes.
They are and will go to war to support Iran.

The Cyber war has been ongoing. The ground war will be soon after Israel bombs Iran.

Russia and China are Allies, they both want to bring the US to it's knees.

i don't agree with your presumption that Russia and China are motivated to bring the US to its knees.

China is not going to go to war with its biggest trade partner, and Russia is a fairweather friend to Iran. Neither of these countries want to upset other oil-producing arab states, who aren't too crazy about Iran.

Turkey? It is a member of NATO. I highly doubt Russia and China would join a shooting war to support Iran, they have too many economic interests with the West.
